Next Toyota Prius to get redesigned

Toyota reportedly plans to introduce many innovations in the next generation Prius, due for release in 2015.

Designers reportedly plan to reduce the weight of the car by 20 %, which will significantly enhance its power.

The car will finally get modern lithium-ion batteries instead of the current nickel-metal ones.

The center of gravity of the new Prius will also be lower, thanks to the use of a new platform.

The fourth generation of the Prius will get a new version of the brand Toyota Hybrid System, Hybrid Synergy Drive, which will benefit from an electric engine with improved propellant combustion, which will have a level of thermal efficiency of over 40%.

The fourth-generation Toyota Prius reportedly goes on sale in the spring of next year.
